period after pregnancy

Since most of us had our baby in june im just curious who has started their first period? I had my son june 8th and i bled on and off heavy than very light until july 10th. Im just wondering about when i should expect my period. About 2 days ago i had spotting and nothing since. I am nursing about 80%.

had my baby on when I was 38 years on June 29th, 2012, c-section also got my tubes tied and bled for about 2 weeks after the baby.  Had a period, in August...ever since then have not had period again.  I am not breastfeeding like I used to but breast still have milk, what could it be causing me not to have period??

I had my baby 4 weeks ago, and I'm still bleeding but I will say that with my other 2 children I didnt get a period until I stopped bf and I bf for the 1st full year.

I've read that spotting is normal with insertion of  mirena. And some people still sort of get there period with it and some don't have one at all.

My period came back 7 weeks after I had my baby. It only lasted for 3 days. I breastfeed exclusively. I've read some people didn't get their period back until they stopped breastfeeding I wasn't so lucky lol.

I had spotting too after my bleeding stopped. I think it was about 7-8 weeks after I had my baby. I am bfing most of the time. I only bottle feed when I go out so that's maybe about 2-3 times a week that I bottle feed. I think it just depends on how your body hormones regulate.
